Default Quietest Mud Terrain?

I have decided step up to some real tires. This will be a daily driver so road noise is an issue.

I am considering Toyo MTs, ProComp Xtreme MTs, and BFG KM2s (35-12.5/17). I am open to others.

Any opinions on the quietest MT?

it's so obvious.... MT=Mud Terrain=Mickey Thompson MTZ
actually they aren't super quiet but they don't even make the wife complain. i used to have the BFGoodrich M/T and they were really quiet hope that helps.

I like the looks of these. They seem like a very similar tire to the pro comp xtreme MTs.

I think the Toyo's , Pro comps, & Coopers, are all real close. In my opinion any of these would probably suit your needs. I paid $260 ea. for the Coopers.

I've got the Cooper too. Never thought a mud tire could be so quiet. They're great.

Procomp Extreme A/T, it is not a mud but it looks aggressive and has low noise.
